"Intense deep purple color. The nose is clean and youthful, with aromas of violet, blackberry, blackcurrant, and licorice, all underpinned by subtle oak notes. The palate is dense and concentrated, still young but with well-polished tannins, subtle oak integration, and a lively freshness that balances the density; flavors of black berries with sweet spices and licorice lead to a long, powerful finish.” (Andreas Larsson). Impressive!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2022 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
Jean-Luc Baldès carries on the family legacy of this historic estate in Cahors. A large portion of the 65 hectares lies on the third terraces of Vire, along the banks of the Lot. The rest is situated on the Causse plateau and its whiter soils. While the intelligent plot selection reflects the estate’s heritage, the Prince-Probus blend offers a true representation of modern Cahors—vibrant and juicy. A must-visit destination.

Wine rated (2021 guide) 88/100
Rated estate (2022 guide) Cité
About the wine:
A fine Malbec, classic in style with a delicate, powdery structure, racy edges, and tannins softened by the vintage.
About the estate:
Jean-Luc Baldès was a champion of Cahors Malbec, striving to bring out the full potential of his vineyard, located on the second, third, and fourth terraces of the Lot River. As a guardian of the vineyard’s history, the “black wine” and the Probus cuvée once brought fame to Cahors. Today, the estate is focusing on wine tourism and attempting to produce more modern wines, without really succeeding. We are therefore removing the star this year.

Rated estate (2022 guide) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Wine Enthusiast)
About the wine:
This estate wine displays a structure and richness derived from the Triguedina vineyard. The tannins are beautifully balanced by dark fruit, while notes of licorice add a hint of bitterness that will mellow over time. Best enjoyed starting in 2022.
